　　In 2014, the American motorcycle maker launched the Harley-Davidson V-Rod Muscle, a cruiser motorcycle that debuted in 2009, part of the VRSC family that included many models with different names, characteristics, and appearances.

　　In the appearance department, the bike featured a raked-out front fork with a teardrop headlight and a small fender, a low seat height, a dual exhaust system with one muffler on each side, and five-spoke aluminum wheels.

　　The bike's handling was operated by a 43mm inverted telescopic fork on the front and dual spring preload-adjustable shock absorbers on the rear, offering excellent suspension performance and handling.

　　The Brembo triple disc braking system comprised two 300 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front wheel and a single 300 mm disc engaged by a four-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering strong and reliable stopping power.

　　At its heart, the 2014 Harley-Davidson V-Rod Muscle had a 1,247cc liquid-cooled V-twin Revolution engine with an electronically controlled fuel injection system, boasting 122 hp at 8,250 rpm and 117 Nm (86 lb-ft) torque with a peak force at 6,500 rpm.

　　The power produced by the Revolution engine was handled by a five-speed manual transmission and a high-performance carbon fiber final belt drive, pushing the bike to a top speed of 224 kph (139 mph).

　　In 2014, the bike had an MSRP of $15,848, while in 2023 (at the time of writing), the bike was for sale with an average retail price of $13,000.
